My Netgear 24‑Port Gigabit PoE+ Essentials Switch has been a great upgrade from my older 16‑port model, giving me the extra ports and PoE power I needed for my Reolink cameras and NVR. It runs cool, stable, and delivers plenty of headroom for future expansion. I’m very happy with my purchase.

Love The GS Series of Devices

I have used the GS series of 8-port switches for years now and they have been outstanding in my home office network. I currently have 4 switches throughout the house and they work beautifully. The ability to configure the GS308 series is a plus, as I can go in and give the device a static IP address and not have to worry about finding it with any other tools. The ability to set Vlans and other settings is also a plus.
